So now that we've had a chance to accumulate some different battle packs over recent years, what is your favorite thus far?

My favorite would definitely have to be the Rebel Trooper battle pack. Sure sure, I know there are a lot of clone-heads out there, but I was so thrilled to get a battalion of troops with the awesome "swooshy" helmets! Plus, I think the little speeder it came with is one of the best little battle pack kits, and definitely has the most playability with the removable laser turret. I also liked the Stormtrooper pack and the Assassin Droids pack (the colors and parts were pretty nice).

NOTE: This is not a "name your dream battle pack" thread! We have plenty of those running about. . .

I'd have to go for the Clone Trooper Battle Pack. There's a variety of minifigs, a set piece for bases (the gun turret) and an awesome speeder. What could be better? _________________FBTB: The Final Chapter

They just both have figures that I love. The other four are good, but not as good as those two._________________Am I the only one who sometimes comes here, logs in, and fools around?

I'll be different I like the droid battle packs. 4 B1's and 3 SBD and a nice STAP included. I can now have a big droid army._________________Brickshelf "You ponce in here expecting to be waited on hand and foot, well I'm trying to run a hotel here!"

I like the original Clone Troopers Battle Pack the most, followed closely by the Imperial Dropship Battle Pack. There were a lot of useful and necessary pieces in the CTBP, and the variety of the figures included was great. I wish I could find some more somewhere for cheap._________________"It seemed impossible, but the 25,000 year-old Jedi Order had vanished. The Sith had finally exacted their revenge."

I guess my favorite is the Imperial Dropship too, because I chose it over the other ones. I'll take the Stormtrooper minifigs over little Battle Droids. The Rebels look so identical...well, so do the Stormtroopers, but they're supposed to be, right _________________

The Rebel Battlepack was great for the new figures it offered us.
Stormtrooper Battlepack was good for the shadow trooper and new lips.
Droid Battlepack was great for the sheer number of figures.
EP III Clone Battlepack was great for variety.
CW Clone Battlepack is good for the Gunner and the uniformity of the figures.
Assassin droid Battlepack is sweet for the amount of Assassin droids you get; previously expensive figures and awesome to have no matter what.

My favorite is the Rebel battle pack. Theses are guys that were never offered in any other set. A close second is the Ep. 2 clones from this year, only because I can now properly man my, I mean my kids, walker and gunship.
I would be estatic if they made others next, such as gungans (haven't seen them in a long time), death star troopers (two in the whole death star doesn't cut it), snowtrooper and hoth rebels, endor rebels and ewoks, and lastly wookies

I'm diiging the Clone Walker pack as of late. I recently bought the RGS and it didn't have much in the way of troops with it (though I'm not complaining since it did come with a sith, 2 Jedi, and Commander Cody). This battle pack has become a nice extention of that set._________________<O> <O>

For me, it's definately the Imperial Dropship. I just love the stormtroopers and the shadow trooper it comes with. Also, the actual ship itself I think is actually pretty cool...much better than the Rebel Speeder IMO. However, I do love the rebel minifigures that come in that set, just not the speeder ._________________Do or do not, there is no try!!!

I really like the new Clone Walker battle pack, but my Dad isn't letting me get it, at least not yet. The first Clone Trooper battle pack is great as it introduced the new blasters and had great-looking minfigs, plus offered interesting chances for alternate models. The other battlepacks were ace in terms of minifigs, but the speeders themselves were pretty meh, apart from the Imperial Dropship, which is an interesting design._________________Ironic, huh.

1. Finally a minifig of the rebel trooper. Something absent for a long time prior. And still to this day, that figure doesn't appear in any other set.

2. This is the only battlepack completely uniform, minimal waste. Giving us 4 of exactly the figure we want. No funky one-offs or rarely seen alternates or EU spawns. (eg. the stormtrooper battlepack is horrible for throwing in the black "shadow" trooper... you need 4 of those battle packs for a dozen regular stormies instead of 3. What a waste).

Honorable mention for the droid battlepack for similar reasons as item 2 above.

Well, I think it all depends on the point of view you are looking at the battlepacks. To me the best battlepack in minifig terms is the Rebel BP cause the minifigs are totally new and also are one of the most wanted but to be honest the vehicle is the most boring in all the battlepacks . In vehicle terms the best in my opinion is the Imperial Dropship BP . That vehicle is just perfect in my opinion. Nice mechanism and also and interesting design.

In terms of vehicle provided with the battle pack, the best would have to be the Rebel Battle Pack and the Assassin Droid BP. The rebel speeder thing looks sleek and nice, and so does the assassin droid speeder. I find the Stormie BP ship to looks a bit weird and ugly, same with the new clone walker pack. The first 2 battle packs had vehicles that were just too simple, but nice minifigs.

In terms of minifigs, I would say that rebel, stormie, and ep2 clone BPs are the best. New rebels, an easy way to get stormies and ep2 clones, and even rarer special figs (like the shadowtrooper and gunner clone) make them the best. I really like the shadow trooper for the color scheme, and I have never seen it before.

As of now, I only have the rebel and stormie ones, but planning to get multiple ep2 clone BPs. I do have to say that the rebels get really redundant after a while._________________Brickshelf gallery:

For me it has to be the Stormie battlepack. Because for once you can get a decent amount of stormtroopers for a low price._________________Having and entire Lego TIE Squadron is freakin awesome. That or really nerdy.

I think the rebel battlepack is the best it had a good vehicle and its the only set with episode 4 rebels_________________If you can read this, you are either very bored or have abnormally good eyesight... O.o
